Legal Malpractice

Examples of Legal Malpractice

Unfortunately, some lawyers victimize their own clients, whether through negligence or intentional acts. Some of the most common examples of legal malpractice include:

Overbilling

Professional incompetence

Failure to meet the applicable statute of limitations and other deadlines

Failure to communicate properly with a client

Failure to use due diligence or perform duties a typical lawyer would in the same or similar circumstances

Proving Legal Malpractice

In order to prove legal malpractice, you need to show that you were harmed when your lawyer acted below the standard of care and that if your lawyer had handled the work properly, you would have had a better outcome. Attorneys can be intimidating adversaries in the courtroom. As a result, legal malpractice victims need the best representation possible when taking on an angry lawyer.
